Question

A rectangle is 18.4 cm long and 16.3 cm wide. What is a) the perimeter of this rectangle and b) the area of this rectangle?

Answer 1

Perimeter = 69.4 cm

Area = 299.92 square cm

Explanation:

Given:

length of rectangle (l) = 18.4 cm

Width of rectangle (w) = 16.3 cm

a) Perimeter of rectangle

= 2( l + w)

= 2 ( 18.4+16.3)

= 2 * 34.7

= 69.4 cm

b) Area of rectangle = lw = 18.4*16.3 = 299.92 square cm
